ATLANTA- Delta Air Lines (DL) is scheduled to initiate daily flights from Atlanta (ATL) to Las Vegas (LAS) using an Airbus A350 (-900) aircraft starting on December 7th, 2023.
The Atlanta-based carrier operates more than 7 daily daily flights between ATL and LAS. The airline deploys its narrowbody fleet, including Boeing 757, 737, and Airbus A321s.
Delta Deploys A350 on Atlanta-Las Vegas
Here’s the schedule for these special flights as reported by Ishrion Aviation:
- The flight DL777 will leave Atlanta (ATL) at 8:30 AM and arrive in Las Vegas (LAS) at 9:56 AM.
- The return journey will see DL777 departing from Las Vegas at 11:16 AM and arriving in Atlanta at 6:00 PM.
Currently, A350 flights from ATL to LAS are planned on a daily basis until January 7. It appears that Delta is redirecting the A350 aircraft from ATL to TLV (Tel Aviv).
Delta has operated the A350 on LAS routes previously, but these were limited to a few short flights during CES (Consumer Electronics Show).
One user commented on X that, ‘Isn’t this essentially an additional leg or transition (using whatever terminology you prefer) that has been integrated into the overnight South America arrival? In the past, the aircraft would remain idle throughout the day until its next journey to Asia, Europe, Africa, or South America, whereas now it’s completing a domestic round trip.’
In response to this, IshrionA wrote, ‘Indeed, that’s a plausible scenario, and these schedules could align well with the ATL-SCL-ATL flight.’
